I'm going off-topic, but you should not patch TZDIR like this.
The time zone database should be found dynamically at run-time via an
environment variable set by the system. Otherwise, your built package
will eventually "go stale" as the time zone database is updated, which
happens several times per year.
Does that make sense?
